Today's adventures take me to Thailand, and the newly converted Armi VTBS!

For my last flight of this spring break, having to quit X-Plane for a while and focusing on finishing school and work at the same time, I have a special collage for you all. Alitalia Flight 615 Boston - Rome Flight Time 8 Hours At gate in Boston, loading up for departure: Morning over the Atlantic, showing off that special 2015 EXPO livery: Touching down at Rome RWY 16R At the gate in Rome, .3x1000kgs fuel left. 5 Minutes to spare! Hope everyone enjoyed their break, Happy Easter. Happy flying!

Thanks Ryan! Send me a message when you're down here and we'll go flying!

Loading up for Dubai

Good morning to the Lower Mainland! Took off from Abbotsford for a quick hop to my future home of Victoria! Can't wait to move to the island, I'm enjoying flying around it for now. Four months to go.

Yeah, Im busy moving house over the last 2 months, so not much X-Plane time these days. My MacPro is actually in a box right now =)

Some Madeira-Fun:

A short hop from San Francisco to Las Vegas!! I had to do a go-around because my 757 was stalling, due to the fact that my auto throttle somehow disengaged on final approach(that was a really close call!!)

Just arrived in Doha, Qatar after a night flight from Munich!! That was literally the most beautiful sunrise I ever saw in X Plane!!

Landing in a simulator is one thing. There's a false sense of security centered a crash where no one gets hurt. Landing in a real life situation, that security disappears, and you know you only have 1 go at making it down in 1 piece. I took off and landed countless times in FS5 and FS98 in just about all the default aircraft. Full of confidence. My first landing in a Beech Skipper in August of 1997, I nearly killed myself and the instructor. I bounced the aircraft on landing. Coming in on base and final, I was gripping that wheel so tight, the instructor had to tell me to loosen my grip at least half a dozen times. It's definitely a very different scenario.
